Law and German

The University of Bristol Law School is a centre for an intellectually demanding, research-informed legal education. We aim to produce accomplished, well-rounded, enquiring graduates with a rich, ethically grounded appreciation of law in business and society.

Bristol is also a major centre for the study of modern languages and cultures. On this four-year Joint Honours programme, which leads to a qualifying law degree, you will study German language, linguistics, literature and history to degree level alongside your core units in law. This provides you with a valuable skill set, ideally tailored to the globalised workplace.

This programme also offers you the opportunity to spend your third year at a German university, where you will study units in German law. Visit our Global Opportunities website to find out where you can study in Germany. In your final year, you will undertake an extended piece of legal research.

All applicants must sit the National Admissions Test for Law (LNAT) before the relevant deadline. Details are available on the LNAT website.
